Music is a mystery for people who play it, write it, listen to it, and write about it. The only thing I can really do when I try to say something about music is assume.

A tonal row for our times that can be played on any instrument. (B=0, C=1, C#=2, D=3, etc.)
I considered trying it in retrograde, but it didn't sound good. And I didn't finish, so I do not think I upset the tide (or the universe). These are dangerous times, and we have to be careful!
I am active as a composer, a violist, a violinist, a recorder player, and as a teacher. I have been keeping this space in the blogosphere alive with assumptions about music (and assorted other things) since 2005.

Please don't play the retrograde!
Would it produce the opposite of the desired results? Or am I just being superstitious? Let's hope not!
